Mar 11 - 12:29 PM, by Nantho Audio Hardware > Trinnov Audio
Audio Hardware : Trinnov Optimizer ST - Stereo Loudspeaker Processor - pcmusicTrinnov Audio has introduced Optimizer ST, a stereo loudspeaker processor featuring exclusive Trinnov digital room correction technology. This new loudspeaker processor can be used to optimize the monitor's behaviour in any room in order to achieve accurate sound reproduction, and consistent mixes from one room to another. Optimizer ST will be showcased at this year's Musikmesse in hall 5.1 stand D58.

Optimizer ST uses exactly the same "digital acoustics engine" that has established Trinnov's reputation as helping sound engineers to achieve translatable mixes in 5.1 control rooms and post-production theatres around europe. It combines automatic and manual room equalization with impulse response acoustic measurements and cutting-edge time-frequency analysis.

The Optimizer ST not only offers unique room EQ features such as target curves and automatic phase optimization. It includes all the functionality that you expect from a loudspeaker processor, such as delays, gains, crossovers and manual EQs (graphic and parametric)

For 2-way and 3-way systems the Optimizer's automatic crossover alignement functionality ensures unmatched sound performance while dramatically reducing the effort required to setup gains and delays on each way. The integrated Bass Management automatically adjusts delays on each satellite to ensure optimal overlapping with the subwoofer. Last but not least, a best-of-breed monitor controller can be built by connecting third party volume knobs and/or touch-screens to the Optimizer ST.

Technical specifications in brief :

- 2 balanced analog in/out via XLR + optional 4 balanced analog out via TRS jacks
- 2 AES/EBU in/out via XLR
- 2 ADAT in/out via toslink
- 2 SPDIF in/out via coaxial or optical
- 2 processing channels
- 96kHz, 64-bit floating point processing
- supports 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz and 96kHz sampling frequencies
- user interface is fully accessible from a connected monitor or from a VNC client (PC or Mac) through the network.
- silent 1.2U frame with external power supply.

Optimizer ST will start shipping on April 3, 2009 with a MRSP of €2950 ex VAT.
